Alive and Kicking, so glad to be back!

Hello sweeties! I have been absent for a long time, so many things have happened in these 4 months, you wouldn't believe. It has been a hard time for me and my family, but now it's over and I'm ready to take over with the blog, are you with me?

Well, where to start? Let's see... I have great news to share with you:

I'm expecting a baby girl!

Yep, I'm six months pregnant right now and the birth is expected for the beginning of May. I'm very happy, but it hasn't been all roses. In fact first 4 months of pregnancy have been very stressful. I had frequent huge hemorrhages with high risks of losing the baby several times, I don't even remember how many times I've been hospitalized for this reason, it's been a nightmare. We haven't been able to get rid of the fear until January when the risk diminished considerably and the reason of the hemorrhages disappeared. During this time I was feeling down and not really feeling like blogging or anything.

After all the odyssey, I must say that I'm starting to really enjoy the pregnancy and all that comes with it. I continue having more frequent medical controls than a normal pregnancy, but it is "just in case" no actual danger.

As you can see in the pic, during my absence all the pretty stuff kept accumulating and now I don't really know where to start! So I'm planning on posting quite regularly for a few weeks and try to catch up with the reading of all my fave blogs too.

I am so excited and happy you are back! I saw your post on facebook and had to drop everything to come and comment right away :) In fact I wanted to email you to see if you were doing alright but I didn't want to invade personal space. I'm so sorry to hear you had such a rough time, it sounded awful so I am glad that you and baby are now doing well. A huuuuge CONGRATULATIONS to the whole polyglot family! What fantastic news! A boy and a girl, how beautiful :) <3 Can't wait to be able to read your upcoming posts, I always loved visiting your blog. xxx

Congratulations on the wonderful news! So exciting!! I hope you continue to feel well and your pregnancy remains even keel from here in out. My pile keeps getting bigger, too. Heh...it's so easy to order all the goodies when you don't feel well enough to do anything else; plus, let's be honest, there are soo many pretties out there!

Congratulation. I am very glad that you're all right and you come with such great news! My pregnancy was similar, I had hemorrhages monthly and once they told me that I lost the baby and after a few hour they made an another test and the baby was alive...well, long and stressful story. Now I have a wonderful daughter which was born in the first period of May :)) So, I wish you all the best, enjoy to the max the pregnancy period! I am super curious about your future posts!

Hi Nati! Oh wow, congratulations!! I am so happy for you! And I am so happy that you are back! I thought we'd lost ya forever :-( You can't imagine how many times I came to visit your blog to see if you maybe had posted an update... So yeah, I am stoked to see you get back into blogging. I hope the pregnancy goes smoothly from now on!

Hey Nati, eeee congrats! I'm so sorry to hear the pregnancy was so difficult, but glad that it's all OK now! Spring baby girls are the best (I was born in spring so I am biased)! Just think about all the cute clothes you can put her in! xx
